<h1><a name="description">DESCRIPTION</a></h1>
<p>PORE::Template represents the handle for PORE templates. To instantiate a PORE::Template object,
either a filename of the template or the a template id is required. The instance is then passed to
<code>PORE::render()</code> during the rendering process.</p>

Usage:
</dd>
<dd>
<pre>
new Text::PORE::Template('file'=>$filename);</pre>
</dd>
<dd>
<pre>
new Text::PORE::Template('id'=>$template_id);</pre>
</dd>
<dd>
<p>A PORE::Template object can be created in two different ways, by accepting a filename or a template id.</p>
</dd>
<dd>
<p>To create a template using a filename, the syntax is
<code>new Text::PORE::Template('file'=</code>><code>$filename)</code>, where <code>$filename</code> is the full path of a file.</p>
</dd>
<dd>
<p>To create a template using a template id, the syntax is
<code>new Text::PORE::Template('id'=</code>><code>$template_id)</code>, where <code>$template_id</code> is the id of a template.
In this case, templates are stored in a predefined directory called template root. By default, the
template root is the current directory. Template root can be changed by calling
<code>PORE::setTemplateRootDir()</code>. All template files stored in this directory must be named in the format
of <code><template_id</code>><code>.tpl</code>, where <code><template_id</code>> is the id of this template.</p>
